1- erect penis: likely Lolita Anime, but I will perform some additional research into the more obscure "erotic" pictures predating hentai (Belladonna among them). Yasuji no Pornorama is also a possible candidate. The more well-known pre-hentai erotic flicks like Cleopatra and Thousand and one Nights do not have a depiction that I recall.

2- Transforming magical girl- You're likely right on this point. Going to review it.

3- tetsujin 28: I've actually been waiting to have a discussion with some robot/mecha fan experts about the subject. Like with many things, English audiences sometimes differentiate things that the Japanese do not. I think we were waiting on making a ruling if "Mecha," "Robot," and "Giant Robot" should be categorized separately.

Did the authorities immediately crack down on hentai ? DateYutaka know anything about this? If you are a fan of (or simply interested in) Japanese films then please join the Cinema of Japan club!

I'd hazard a guess that it would be for the same reason the uncensored versions of things like La Blue Girl have a "half-drawn" penis. :p Though I'm not sure about the part of no more penises showing up until 1992, I imagine a lot of artists preferred to think up creative camera angles since any attempt to draw one would be covered-up anyway. You can see remnants of that even with more modern stuff. My recollection of Boku no Sexual Harassment--for example--is that there is never an actual penis on screen either. Shaded nether regions and euphemisms abound instead.

Incidentally, pending further review added the portion on penises. Lol.
